Tribute Band Singer Performs SABBATH Classic With QUEENSRŸCHE; Video Available

January 30, 2008

Rick Forsgren, the lead singer of the Minneapolis hard rock tribute act ROCKFIST!, got the chance of a lifetime: to rock with his favorite band, QUEENSRŸCHE.

Rick was one of three vocalists that were selected to sing karaoke versions of either "Synchronicity II" (THE POLICE),"Welcome To The Machine" (PINK FLOYD),or "Neon Knights" (BLACK SABBATH) prior to QUEENSRŸCHE's January 26, 2008 concert at the Myth nightclub in Maplewood, Minnesota. The crowd voted for Rick by their enthusiastic response after he rocked "Neon Knights", and Forsgren got a chance to play the song live with QUEENSRŸCHE during the band's set.

Watch video footage of the performance below.
